Lyrics
HE SET ME FREE
An old friend got me to thinkin' I'd been doin' too much drinkin' in the evening
She said, "The Holy Spirit can't declare its love with other spirits in the way"
So I woke up the next morning and I cast away the spirits that had bound me
I savored perfect love and saw the light of God's never ending grace
Perfect love
Fills my heart
When I believed
It filled me from the start
Perfect love
Carries me
And now I know
That he set me
He set me free
He set me free
Once I packed up all my sorrows and I cast away the demons that deceived me
I felt the presence of the One who gave His precious life to me
A stormy day is comin' when the rain is gonna wash away my sorrows
His perfect love will fill my life and guide me all the way
Perfect love
Fills my heart
When I believed
It filled me from the start
Perfect love
Carries me
Now I know
That he set me
He set me free
He set me free
Perfect love
Fills my heart
When I believed
It filled me from the start
Perfect love
Carries me
Now I know
I'm filled with
Perfect love
I can feel His
Perfect love
I want to share His
Perfect love
You can feel His love
Perfect love
And now I know
Now I know
He set me free
He set me free
He set me free
He set me free
He set me free
He set me free
He set me free
He set me free
He set me free
He set me free
He set me free
He set me free
He set me free
